Lavender Rose


Hi There! Today I have yet another rose for you. I actually did this one before I did the red one that I showed a few days ago. My mom used to have a really pretty lavender rose bush. Its what I was thinking of when I came up with this color scheme. The background purple paper is from prism. I used PTI Background basics: Tin Type to make the pattern. I used versamark ink. Its mounted on stampers select White. I used some Plum Pudding Twill for the border. I punched a piece of Linen Vellum for the sentiment area. The sentiment is from the Fillable Frame collection, number 5, I think. Its stamped in Plum Pudding ink. Thanks for stopping by! Blogger is having a lot of problems with comments so dont be shocked if yours doesn't show up right away. Hopefully they will get it fixed soon.

Michele, lavender and purple...some of my favorite colors. :) This is absolutely beautiful... love the geometric background with the curves of the rose as the contrast. Well done!

If you are trying to convince me to buy some copics, it's working! Although I don't know if I could color as well as you! Gorgeous!

Anika- you should get some, its really not that hard. You just have to practice. Trust me, plenty of roses ended up in the recycle.
